Not the most disturbing film ever

Hey there, Naidox,

I see what you're getting at with the fact that this film was way over the top in places, but I don't understand the logic that diminishes it's ability to be disturbing. Interestingly enough, the same comments you make here are similar to how I felt when I first saw Saló, a movie that I felt had nothing but a paper thin plot and seemed to be trying too hard to make me feel disgusted with it. Nekromatik was even worse - I was actually looking forward to that one being over the top, but was so annoyed with the "rippling" effects that the director employed during some of the sequences, and some of the scenes (especially near the end) were laughably poorly executed.

I will give you Cannibal Holocaust - a movie that I felt was poorly acted but extremely hard to watch in places. I have not seen Visitor Q and have only heard about Come and See, so I'll have to check those out.

I will make this last point about whether or not Serbian Film is disturbing, one of the issue that I found hard to shake after watching this film wasn't just the visuals (and I understand that there are two cuts of this film, so I guess that also depends on what version you saw), but it was also some of the concepts. Things that weren't even graphic like the old woman and the last scene, were disturbing - I would even say at a psychological level, because of their implications. The last line of this movie makes clear that even in death, these people are not going to find much relief. Few movies go so far as to make that point.

You talking about this one? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0870984/

I saw all those movies and I agree with you. This one is the most sick *beep* movie. I mean, what can top the baby scene? Fook, that was some sick *beep* I mean, torturing people like in Martyrs is Disney compared to the baby scene. Martyrs is just like any other horror movie. Canibal Holocaust is just gross.

No Raylan, I'm gonna bet my life on you being the only friend I have left in this world.

Which version of Last House? My viee about the original is that is was vert poorly produced. The cinematography, plot, and "score" were often pathetic. The concept itself isn't remarkable in itself but I think more could have been done with it.

That said, if I told a horror enthusiast the five most shocking facts about the film, I'm sure they would be intrigued, just as I was. But the execution was so poorly done I feel like the film relies purely on its perversion and shock value, while A Serbian Film, without a single redeeming quality, still has much more to offer the viewer in terms of an underlying meaning or "moral."

The most disturbing is "Philosophy of a Knife", by far. Each mentioned above movie is somewhat manageable to see from the beginning to the end. This one not. Try to find it and watch it: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0961119/
